The Better to Hear You, My Dear

I love reading articles on writing, marketing, and good
books. Here are a few that caught my attention recently:

1.Penny C.
Sansevieri guest posted at Working
Writers and Bloggers. Wow! She had some great tips on using audio to sell
your books, as well as referencing other articles.

2.Now that you've
read the first article, here's a How-to Create and Market a Stellar Podcast on The
Blogging Bistro. BTW, this site has some awesome how-to articles. Even if
you're not a writer, you can add some zip to your blog with their guidance.

3.Once again, The
Blogging Bistro is my choice for a handy-dandy blog/story starter. What's a
seaplane doing in the middle of the road? Find out here.

Writers and Readers:Do you listen to audio books, book trailers, podcasts, etc.? Why do you
like/dislike them?

My husband and I listened to an audio book on a recent trip to visit my sister. It was a great way to pass part of the 7+ hour drive. Our kids used to listen to them all the time growing up. Thanks for the links!

Hi Susan, I love audio books for when I'm driving, but the one place I use them the MOST is the laundry room when I'm ironing. I love to slip into another wold when doing my household chores, and if a book is really good, I may even take a while longer at the ironing board.

I have listened to audio books, but prefer the printed word. My mind tends to wander while I have an audio book on, no matter the story.

I do listen to podcasts. I listen to religious messages via podcast from time to time. It's nice that I can rewind and pause when I need to quickly jot down an inspirational message. Funny, my mind never wanders during podcasts, likely because they are much shorter than my audio books!
